E. B. MURRAY, Editor. THTJESDAY, APRIL 29, 1886 TB RMS : ONE Y EAP.._._.?.-81.50. SIX MONTHS. 7go. The Roanoke Railroad meeting, of which we publish a synopsis elsewhere, was in the interest of a line of railroad which the people of Anderson cannot afford to lose, if it can possibly be secured. It is to be an extension of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad from Roanoke, Va., to Atlanta, Georgia, for the purpose of competing in time and traffic with the great Richmond & Danville system. If properly, located and built, it will make the distance from Atlanta to Balti? more very much shorter than the present line j, which it is meant to antagonize. On any of the three first named routes Anderson has tbe advantage for the loca? tion. From Greenville it would be a necessary point, and from Spartanburg to Atlanta it may be regarded as a very probable point on tbe line. If Union and Laurens become points on the line, then Anderson's position is still as favor? able as that of any other point of any prominence, for several reasons which may not be necessary here to state. To be located on such a line wonld be of immense advantage to our city, and would make its future one oi assured prosperity. Our people should be wide awake, and look closely and progressively after qur interest in the premises. In our opinion tbe City Council should appoint a committee to represent the city in watching the progress of this enterprise, and keeping Anderson's claims promi? nently before the management of the proposed' road. We cannot afford to lose the location of so valuable a route as the new road will be. The attendance upon the Farmers' Convention which is to meet in Colum? bia to-day, bids fair to be very largely attended, and we trust that its delibera? tions may be tempered with that conser? vatism and wisdom which is*so necessary to give force and command approval for the action of such a body. *The meeting will accomplish great good for the peo? ple of the State if it confines its labors to the discussion of agricultural interests, and such matters as . pertain thereto, either in politics or commerce, but-if it should be cut and dried for the pet schemes of a few men to enable them to run into office, it will prove a boomerang to the farmers of the State. The danger in such a Convention is, that in the hur? ry to adjourn, it may not he able to ob? tain tbe information necessary to base its action on, except upon the statement of individual members of the Convention and such action is always liable to be somewht erroneous. We hope the Con? vention will,'by committees, look fully into the different departments of our government, and inform themselves upon the matters of public policy in this State which affect the interests of our people. By doing this the information that will be made public w:il be the source of a correct public opinion .which cannot fail to produce beneficial results. The Convention.should not become the tail to the kite of any man or set of men in personal politics. It- should take stock neither in a new deal nor an old deal, but confine its work to the consideration of measures affecting the agriculture of ?the State. In the city of Richmond, Va., an election under the recent County Option law was held to determine the question of license or no license on last Monday. The wet ticket received 8,941 votes, .while tbe dry only carried 3,260 votes, making tbe majority for license 5,681. The colored vote was almost unanimous for license. The white vote was rather .evenly divided, with the majority in favor of license. At first appealance this would seem to be a decidedly black eye for pro? hibition, but in reality it is the result of bad management and fanaticism on the part of the temperance people in Rich? mond. The city was not ready for pro? hibition, and any careful investigation of the state of public opinion there would have revealed the fact, and should have prevented the holding of the election. The Georgia plan is the discreet one. Their County Option law was passed several years ago, and instead of begin? ning in their cities they agitated the Counties in which small towns were situ? ated, and carried them. With the force of an advancing prohibition sentiment tbey then attacked the larger towns and cities, which they have almost invariably carried. The inconsiderate action of the Virginia prohibitionists has undoubtedly given tbe cause a back-set in that State, but tbeir experience will doubtless be profitable to them, and they will yet carry their efforts to a successful termina? tion. The New York Herald put3 the duty of the Democratic Party on the subject of tariff revision strongly before the people of the Union, in calling attention to the platform of the party which prom? ised tariff revision, and says: That is a matter which Democrats from Democratic Slates ought- to think of. If Pennsylvania and Ohio could be counted on to help elect the Democratic Presidential candidate in 1888, what the men of tbese two States now want, or think they want, might be entitled to consideration by Democrats. But these Pennsylvania and Ohio Democrats assume to rule and overrule and defeat their party in Congress, and then they go home and let their States in a Presiden? tial election swell the vote of the other side. Under these circumstances the Pennsylvania and Ohio Democrats ought to be a little modest. A true sense of their relations to their party would lead them, if they cannot support its measures in Congress, at least to ab? stain from voting where they do not agree. Tbe Democrats in Congress should unite upon some seheme for revision of the tariff, if it takes a caucus to accom? plish the result. The party now is con? trolled by a few Democrats who vote with tbe Republicans and always defeat ttriff revision. In this they may aTso defeat the Democratic Party, -for the party is pledged to tariff revision. If it fails to cary out this pledge, it will be a serious matter in the next canvass. It is stated that Gen. John B. Gordon contemplates becoming a candidate for Governor of Georgia in the ensuing canvass. If he enters the canvass the people of South Carolina will certainly wish him success. Georgia cannot select a more admirable man in every respect ttian Gen. Gordon for her Chief Magis? trate. - _ ? The widow of Gen. J. E. B. Stuart, of the Virginia cavalry, is now keeping a prosperous girls' school at Staunton, Va. The Senate has confirmed the appoint? ment men t of Col. D. F. Bradley as Col? lector of Internal Revenue for thisStatei and in* doing so has shown a sound judgment and fairness which is to be commended. Col. Bradley is a most thoroughly upright and diligent gentle man, and is making an efficient and popular Collector. Mr. Editor: One of the gentlemen writing through the columns of the Intel lice nc uit, in opposition to the suggestion of "Citizen," that a new bridge be built across Seneca River, etc., expresses the opinion that the Deep Creek hills are "bad hills," and suggests a change of road as specified in his arti? cle. The other thinks that a new bridge should be built, but opposes a change of location as proposed, although he admits that "it would be an advantage to the neighborhood below Shallow Ford." Neither informs us how to avoid Deep Creek. I hope that information enough has been elicited (in support of the petitions) to induce our County Commis? sioners to tlioroughly investigate this matter, and to inspect and measure the two rouces from Mr. T. J. McClure's to some point near Mr. N. 0. Farmer's residence. In making their estimates it might be well to consider the practicabil? ity of rafting the stones, of which the piers of Earle's bridge are built, down to the mouth of Deep Creek. V. F. Martin. Andersonville, S. C, April 26(h, 1886. OUR WASHINGTON LETTER. Washington, D. O, April 24,1886. Monday will be a great holiday here for the young and for the old folks as well. The custom peculiar to Washing? ton of "rolling eggs" will have full sway, and no doubt the White House Grounds will be as in times past besieged by a large crowd. Every year for the past 20 years the grounds have been a favorite resort for "Young America" on Easter Monday, and until lately the Capitol terrace also furnished amusement for thousands. But Congress has prohibited children from using the terraces for their sport, and restricted them to the White House grounds. President Cleveland, fortunately for the young folks, takes a great interest in the children, and last I Easter held quite a reception iu the East Room, the little ones crowding in. by hundreds when it became known that the President would receive them. Out of respect to the holy day the Senate adjourned over Good Friday, but the House refused to adopt a resolution to adjourn. The Senate, in anticipation of the adjournment, disposed of a large amount of business, and passed 500 pen? sion bills, which has almost entirely cleared its calendar of that class of busi? ness. This spasmodic generosity must have been brought on by the sharp strictures of Senator Blair iu the early part of the week on the action of the Senate in putting off from time to time the consideration of the general pension appropriation bill, aud bis declaration to resign from the'Pension Committee un? less a bearing should be given the com? mittee. The military captured Washington the past week and held high carnival. The famous New York Seventh had 800 men in line, and they together with the many friends who accompanied them on their march on Washington made the halls of the Government buildings buzz with the merry voices of peace soldiers and their lady friends employed in the offices. The scene was in striking contrast #ith the exciting warlike scenes of '61, when the same regiment first visited the city iu response to the President's call for 75,000 men. The soldiery bearing, fine march? ing, and gentlemanly deportment of the gallant Seventh won the admiration aud praise of our citizens and the hearts of our beautiful girls, and the soldier boys left for home in high glee and with unbounded praise of the reception given them. One of the most interesting places to visit in Washington is the Secret Seryice Bureau in the Treasury department. In its rooms may be seen the photographs of nearly all the noted "gangs" who find it profitable to spend their time iu coun? terfeiting the currency of their country. The groups of pictures bung around the walls contain every imaginable type of countenance, from the-most repulsive looking individual to the handsome young man and most beautiful of the fair sex. Here are exposed for the benefit of the public the pictures of girls, young moth? ers with babes in their arms, old women, young and old men, and even the inuo cent but industrious Chinese, who have sought to defraud the Government by counterfeiting the national currency. The tools, dies, moneys, bonds, etc^ which have been captured from the counterfeiters, are kept in a large iron Bafe at night and displayed in cases to the public gaze during the day. In this museum the government will soon have a varied collection, constituting a second Patent Office for the exhibition of Amer? ican genius. Inquiry of Chief Brooks reveals the fact that counterfeiters are most numerous through the North and West, and instead of prosecution crushing them out, it only seems to serve to give them renewed life and increased vigor. National bank notes are much more counterfeited than U. S. notes and cer? tificates. Coins of all kinds aud of every denomination hav% been counterfeited. The most dangerous counterfeits are those struck from a steel die, aud are princi? pally imitations of the gold coins. Moulds of various kinds are extensively used in counterfeiting gold, silver- and other coins, but these counterfeits are much inferior to those made from dies. The principal metals used are ' platinum, silver, copper, brass, antimony, zinc, type metal, and their numerous compounds. The standard silver dollars are extensive? ly counterfeited, and are composed of antimony and lead, heavily silv.erplated. The 5 cent nickel coin is a very dangerous counterfeit. It 1*3 struck from a die, and is made of the same metal as is used by the mint. The cent, made of copper, nickel and bronze is counterfeited to a small extent"principally to fill cabinets of numismatics, particularly the old dates. Such information as the above is given by the obliging attendant in charge of these valuables, and instead of tiring in telling to the many visitors the history of each counterfeit and the ingeniously contrived tools on exhibition, be seems to become enthused ou the subject and to call to mind some "blood-thrilling" event omitted by inadvertence in narrating the story to some person who has left the room just before you entered. If you want to spend two or three days in listen? ing to thrilling stories, don't fail to visit the museum of the Secret Service Bureau when you are in Washington. H. A Reply to "G. T. B,? Mit. EiHTOR: While it U true that the writer knows more about farming than he does about the tariff, yet he doubts that there is a farmer in Anderson Coun? ty that pays anything like the amount of tariff on the articles mentioned by "G. T. B." Now, the. main object of the larger number of the 4,000 tariff charges is to prohibit competition with our products?hence the high tnrifr. If the tariff was actually paid by our farm? ers, we would have foreign goods in every market, and as it is, we scarcely find any article that figures largely in the account against the farmer save sugar, and this, as well as rice aud wool, are raised by our own farmers. Now, the writer does n- " wish to be understood as an advocate of feeding the New England tariff bull that keeps John Bull out, but at the same time this doe3 not cost us near so much as it does to feed our hogs in the West. "G. T. B.'s" estimate of "$57 per capita overcharge on goods caused by the tariff rates" is simply ridiculous. We have a number of farmers who raise all their supplies that will grow ou their laud, that do not trade iu the stores for all they buy in one year to the amouut of ?57 per capita. The bulk of the "time trade" among the* farmers is for groceries, fertilizers and other supplies that do not come under the tariff. Imagine far? mer John plowiug a 35 per cent, mort? gaged mule, fed on 40 percent, com, and eating 40 per cent bacon aud other things in proportion, and yet, to cap it all, wears a $20 ($12 tariff suit) and kicks around at night under a 90 per cent, blanket. The writer wears a $G suit, and has beeu enjoying tolerable rest at night for the last twenty years under a home-made blanket, and does not remember being in? terrupted once with one of those 90 per cent. la.'.ff night-mares. I would like very much to see that New England tariff bull slaughtered, andas"G?T. B." can give him harder licks than any one I know of, I will vote for him as a delegate to Washing? ton to do the work if he can, but at the same time will say that this will not cause the farmers to raise their own sup? plies, or the merchants to charge less for the same on time. The. farmers in Anderson County arc far better off in the way of raising their own supplies than nine-tenths of the rest of the Coun? ties in the State, yet there are thousands of pounds of bacon going out to our our farmers on time at from 10 cents to 12} cents, that C03ts from 5} to 6} cents, and corn at 75 cents to $1.00 that cost from 50 cents to G5 cents per bushel; flour and lard arc nearly as high, yet some would say that the farmer caunot pay ten per cent on money. Now, it would not do to institute a quarrel between the merchants and tbe farmer, for if we did some of us farmers would be without rations very soon. Now, the merchant is farmer John's best friend. He will sell him anything he wants at a profit of from twenty to one hundred per cent., while farmer John makes cottou that cost him 7 cents per pound, and sells the same at 7} to S cents. The merchant does more for farmer John than farmer John does for himself or tbe merchant, for he sells him all the goods h* promised, but farmer John cannot pay 40 per cent, profit on supplies with a 2i to5 percent, cotton crop. Farmer's Sox. P. S.-I Pay Cash. Another Railroad. Four of the Greenville delegates to tho railroad meeting-at Roanoke who left here on Sunday night got back yesterday morning. They had a delightful trip and are much pleased with the meeting and its results. The fifth delegate, Dr. W. L. Mauldin, did not come back with the others but went to Washington. The party that left here was joined at Saulsbury and Charlotte by large squads of delegates representing different points and interests in North Carolina, and when the train reached Roanoke, Mon? day afternoon, there were two cars full of delegates who found a number of others already on the ground. The gathering was said by veteran campaigners, to be the largest railroad convention they had ever attended. Roanoke is a town four years old and with 6,000 people. Representative Ausel says it is one of the most beautiful and delightful little cities he ever saw. It is on the Norfolk-and Western railroad and tho terminus of the Shenandoah Valley Road, and has an iron furnace, car shops second to none in the couulry aud era ploying several hundred men, water works, two fine hotels, iucludiug one which cost $65,000 to build aud furuish, and other attractions. The visitors t\ ere all impressed with the earnestness of the Roanoke people iu railroad enter? prise and -their determiifttion to build the railroad to the south. It was developed very clearly that Atlanta is the objective point of the pro? posed line. The Roauoke people had heard little or nothing of Greenville and were much astonished and impressed when given the facts and figures to show the size, importance and progress of the city. Speeches made in behalf of this city by Doctor Mauldin and Mr. Ansel were heard with evident interest and ap? proval, and were liberally applauded, especially as those gentlemeu talked "business" and made clear and definite statements of what can be done for the road here. The route is virtually settled on as far as Mooresville and Mockville, N. C. From that point four lines are offered? (1.) Via Lincolnton, Shelby, Green? ville and Anderson toward Atlanta; (2) Shelby to Spartanburg and be? tween Greenville and Laurens toward Atlanta; (3) Via Mooresville, Charlotte, York ville, Union, Cross Anchor and Cross Keys to Laurens C. H.; (4) Via Charlotte, Lancaster and Camden to the coast. Dr. Mauldin told the convection that if the road should be run by Greenville and Andeison the Greenville and Ander? son people would meet it at the North Carolina line and put it to the Savannah River.? Greenville News, April 23. Death of the Poet Priest. Louisville, April 23.?Father Abram J. Ryan, the "poet priest of the South," died at the Franciscan monastery of St. Bonafacius in this city last night. He came here a month ago from a Catholic institution at Reading, near Cincinnati. He intended to make this his retreat and to finish a Life of Christ, which he bad undertaken. He became ill within a week with organic heart disease and grew steadily worse. For several days past his mind wandered and he has talked pitifully of his eventful life in the war days and has preached to imaginary audiences. Yesterday he passed into a comatose state, from which he never roused. Father Ryan's remains will be taken to-morrow to Mobile, where they will be buried. An escort of Ex-Confederate soldiers will accompany the remains. ? The surgical operation performed in the case of young Hughes, who was so terribly stabbed in Richmond, Va., is said to be a revelation of modern surgi? cal science. The man's iutestines were severed and protruding. Tbe operation consisted in opening the cavity of the stomach at the median line, emptying out the blood, washing the bowels and sewing up the two cut places in them. A COMMISSION OF LABOR. The President Send? hi a Message With that Suggestion. Washington, April 22.?The Presi? dent to day sent to Congress a message calling attention to the gravity of the existing situation of the labor "question throughout the entire country, express? ing the opinion that the* proper theory upon which to proceed is that of volun? tary arbitration as a means of settling the difficulties described, aud suggesting that there be created a commission of labor, consisting of three members, who shall be regular officers of the govern? ment, charged, among other duties, with the consideration aud settlement, when possible, of all controversies between labor and capital. The message in full is as follows: To the Senate and House, of Repre? sentatives: The Constitution imposes on the President the duty of recommend? ing to the consideration of Congress, from time to time, such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient. I am so deeply impressed with the impor? tance of immediately and thoughtfully meeting the problem which recent events and the present condition have thrust ou us, involving the settlement of disputes arising between our laboring men and their employers, that I am constrained to recommend to Congress legislation on this serious and pressing subject. Under our form of government, the value of labor as an element of national prosperi? ty should be distinctly recognized, and the welfare of the laboring man should be regarded as especially eutitled to leg? islative care. In a country which offers to all its citizens the highest attainment of social and political distinction, its workingmen cann-jt justly or safely be considered as irrevocably consigned to the limits of class and entitled to no at? tention and allowed no protest against neglect. The laboring man, bearing in his hand an indispensable contribution to our growth and progress, may well insist, with manly courage and as a right, upon the same recognition from those who make our '.^?vs as is accorded to any other citizen having a valuable interest in charge, aud .his reasonable demand should be met iu such a spirit of appre? ciation and fairness as to induce a con? tented and p&Lrijtic co-operation in the achievement of a grand national destiny. While the real interests of labor are not promoted by resort to threats and violent manifestations, and while those who under a pretext of an advocacy of claims of labor, wantonly attack the rights of capital, -'d for selfish purposes, or love of disordc sow seeds of violence and discontent, should neither be encour? aged nor conciliated. All legislation on the subject should be calmly and deliber? ately undertaken, with uo purpose of satisfying uureasonable demands or gain? ing partisan advantages. The present condition of the relations between labor and capital are far from satisfactory. The discontent of the employed is due, in a large degree, to the grasping and heedless exactions of employers, and alleged discrimination in favor of capital as an object of governmental attention. It must also be conceded that laboring men are not always careful to avoiu causeless and unjustifiable disturbance. Though the importauce of better accord between these interests is apparent, it must be borne in mind that an effort in that direction by the federal government must be greatly limited by constitutional restrictions. There are many grievances which legislation by Congress cannot re? dress ana many conditions which cannot by such means be reformed. I am satisfied, however, that "something may be done, under federal authority, to prevent disturbances which so often arise from disputes between employers and employed, and which at times seriously threaten the business interests of the country, aud in my opiniou the proper theory upon which to proceed is that of voluntary arbitration as a means of settliug these difficulties. But I suggest that, instead of arbitrators chosen in the heat of conflicting claims, and after each dispute shall arise, there be created a commission of labor, consisting of three members, who shall be regular officers of tbe government, charged, among other duties, with the consideration aud set? tlement, when possible, of all controver? sies between labor and capital. A com? mission thus, organized would have the advantage of being a stable body, and its members as they gained experience would constantly improve in their ability to deal intelligently and usefully with questions which might be submitted to them. If arbitrators are chosen for tem? porary service, as each case of dispute arises, experience aud familiarity with much that is involved in the question will be lacking. Extreme partisanship and bias will be a qualification sought on either side, and frequeut complaints of unfairness and partiality will be inevita? ble. The impositiou upon a federal court of a duty, foreign to its judicial function as the selection of an arbitrator in such cases, is at least of doubtful propriety. The establishment by federal authority of such a bureau, would be a just and sensible recognition of the value of labor, and of its right to be represented in the departments of the government. So far as its conciliatory offices had a relation to disturbances which interfered with tran? sit and commerce between the States, its existence would be justified, under the provisions of the constitution, which gives Congress the power "to regulate commerce with foreign nations and among the several States," and in fre- ? queut disputes between laboring men and their employers, of less extent, and the consequences of which are confined within State limits and threaten domestic violence, the interposition of such a commission might he tendered upon ap? plication of a legislature or the executive of a State under the constitutional pro? vision which requires the general govern? ment to "protect" each of the States against domestic violence. If such a commission were fairly organized, tbe risk of loss of popular support and sym? pathy resulting from a refusal lo submit to so peaceful an instrumentality would constrain both parties to such disputes to invoke its interference and abide by its decision. There would also be a good reason to hope that the very existence of such an agency would invite application to it for advice and counsel, frequently resulting in the avoidance of contention and misunderstanding. If the usefulness of such commission is doubted because it might lack power to enforce its decisions, much encourage? ment is derived from the conceded good that has been accomplished by railroad commissions, which have been organized in many of the States, which having a little more than advisory power, have exerted a most salutory influence on the settlement of disputes between conflict? ing interests. In July, 1884, by a law of Congress a bureau of labor was established and placed in charge of a commissioner of labor who is required to "collect infor? mation on the subject of labor, its rela? tions with capital, the hours of labor and the earnings of laboring men and women, aud the means of promoting their material, social, intellectual and moral prosperity." The commission which I suggest could easily be engrafted upon the bureau thus already organized by the addition of two more commission? ers, and by supplementary duties now imposed on it by such other powers and functions as would permit the commis? sion to act as arbitrators, when necessary, between labor and capital, under such limitation and upon such occasions as should be deemed proper and useful. Power should also be distinctly imposed up?n this bureau to investigate the causes of all disputes, as they occur, whether submitted for arbitration or not, that in? formation may always be at hand to aid legislation on the subject when necessary and desirable.

The Question o' the Hour, ?aI.vkstox, Texas, April 21.?The following letter from ex-President Jef? ferson Davis, of the Confederate States, to H. W. Pope, of Marsball, Texas, in which Mr. Davis gives his views as to what legislation might be adopted to bring about harmony and unity of action between capital and labor, has juit been made public: Beauvoir, Miss., March 21, 1880.? Hon. \V. H. Pope?My Dear Sir: Fully appreciating the compliment conveyed by your request for my views as to what legislation might be adopted to adjust the conflict now going on between capital and labor, I regret tha' the compliment is so little merited. The o!u war between capital and labor has called forth the best intellects of Europe. It has dis? turbed commerce, overthrown govern? ments, produced anarchy, and crept from the wreck without solving the problem. With us the contest is in its incipient state, and happily it may be that some? thing can be done to check its growth. Self interest and free competition for labor will, wherever laborers are abund? ant, give to the rich the power to oppress the poor. We cannot legislate to destroy the motive of self-interest, for that lies at the foundation of progress, aud our efforts must, therefore, be directed to unifying the interests of labor and capital as far as this may be done by the Legis? latures of the States. The preseut form of conflict in our country is between associated labor and the organizations employing it. It is not a sufficient an? swer to say that the price of labor has advanced, unless it can be shown that the profits moved pari passu with the profits of capital; for in this, as in other things of comparative welfare, we must consider the relative improvement. The standard of comfort rises proportionately to the increase of wealth iu the country. Your idea of a Court of Arbitration, I think, has much to recommend it. The organization of such a Court, so as to secure equally the confidence of both tbe contending parties, would require both liberality and discretion, and it would be needful that their decir.ons should be based on something like a co operative principle of industrial partnership, in which the wages of employees should be measured by the profits of the corpora? tion. If in this manner a commuuity of interest could be established, the welfare and contentment of both would seem to be a possible result. "With sincere regard and best wishes for'you and yours, I am, your friend, Jefferson Davis." A Bloody Tragedy. Chattanooga. Texx., April 2G.?A special to the Times from Manchester, Coffee County, Tennessee, gives the de? tails of a bloody tragedy, enacted there shortly after midnight this morning, in which United States Deputy Marshal Webb Purden of Manchester, and a moonshiner named Claik were killed and three other moonshiners fatally wounded. About ten days ago Purden, accompanied by Deputy Marshal Hughes, went on a raid among the illicit distilleries of Grun dy Coun'y, Tennessee, and captured and destroyed several stills. Between 12 and 1 o'clock this morning fifteen moonshiners rode into Manches? ter, determined to have Purden's life. Seven broke into his house and the balance surrounded it. Purden met them with a cocked revolver as they entered, and a terrible battle ensued. Two moon? shiners fell to the floor mortally wounded and the gang retreated, but they had succeeded in fatally wounding Purden. Disabled as he was he jumped from bed, seized a double-barrel shotgun and fired into the retreating gang, and two more fell mortally wounded. Purden then fell dead beside the body of one of his vic? tims. The gang carried off their wound? ed companions. A large posse is now in pursuit of them. ? A California paper relates that on a farm near Snelling, in Merced County, there is a well ICS feet deep in solid rock, which constantly sends up a large volume of air. When a rain storm or a strong wind is impending the volume of escap? ing air increases so as to roar audibly. Tbe well cover is furnished with a vent. By closing this for a few moments the confined air recovers sufficient force, when liberated, to make a noise like the escaping steam of a locomotive. The well furnishes an abundance of excellent water. ? The attempt of President Cleveland to deal with the labor troubles in Ameri? ca fails to'excite attention in England. The leading advocates of the cause of labor in London mostly share the convic? tion which Prince Krapotkiue, expressed some time ago, of the failure of Parlia? mentary machinery, and utterly lack con? fidence in the ability of tbe political doctors to deal with this great disease of the nineteenth century. ? Pensacola, Fla., is a great fishing mart, being exceptionally well situated for the trade. As many as 2,500 fisher? men make it their market. By means of refrigerator cars their catches are sent to all parts of the country. The trade at present is worth $500,000 aud is increas? ing at the rate of 50 per cent, annually. ? Chas. W.

Tho following letter from a well-known Western lady oxplains itself and is worthy of careful reading: "I wish to say to the sick and those that are feoblo and weak from any cause whatever, that in all tho vocabulary of medicines tbev will find tho most virtue aud the greatest bonelits from Parker's Tonic.

Still they como and all in tho highest praise, Ollico Piedmont M'l'g Co., Piedmont, S. C?Mess. Westmoreland Bros.: Near? ly two years ago I contracted malaria into my system, and suffered greatly from litno to time from it in various forms in which it developed. .Sometimes had severe Chills and fevers?indigestion followed it, and J was generally out of health. Last spring for more than two months I was greatly troubled with it dis? ordered condition ot' the bowels, which I believe was the result of the malariu still existing in my system. I visited two or three mineral springs celebrated for the cure of malarial diseases, without the slightest benefit. I was also treated as the d?brent symptoms developed by the most skillful physicians, but was not re? lieved. About two months ago, I con? cluded to try Calisaya Tonic, prepared by Westmoreland Bros., but I must confess I had little confidence of being materially benefited by it. I have taken live or six bottles of the Tonic?from the beginning I felt r-lief and continued to improve, until now I feel quite as well and in as perfect health as I ever did in my life, and believo I am perfectly well. II. P. HAmmett, President. The effects of malaria in the system is a hard thing to eradicate, but will prompt? ly yield to the wonderful and sovereign remedy, Westmoreland's Calisaya Tonic. Try it.
